Bad news for your mom. Turns out Liberty Squirrel has a pretty fucked up history of grooming minors in his DMs.

I am loving the balkanization of this social media platform.

Shades of the Olde Internet, where if it wasn't in your web ring, it might as well not exist.

Bluesky is great because there will be someone with 200,000 followers that you literally never interact with and it’s like that Simpsons steamed hams thing where he goes WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THERE

It is tacky for really famous people to be in TV commercials for products. Their gambling debts/boat repairs are not my problem, those roles should belong to actors like the Time To Make The Donuts guy and the actress who said "who are you calling a cootie queen you lint licker" in that Orbit ad.

And a reminder that corn farmers are also soybean farmers, at least in my neck of the woods. Crop rotations.

China’s soybean imports hit a record high for the month of September, even as the country avoids US supplies amid a resurgence in trade tensions between the agriculture powerhouses

Donald- So I just admit that I was wrong and I get to go into heaven?

Jesus- Yes my child. I paid the price for your sins when I died on the cross

Donald- But I have to admit I was wrong?

Jesus- Yes my child.

Donald- I like messiahs who weren't crucified.

I get really riled up about how people treat what amounts to a next-gen spellcheck.

Don't worship it or sell out the economy and environment for it.

Don't treat it like the antichrist and/or Hitler 2.0.

Agree with everything but "a lot of money to be made." Maybe eventually, but the opposite is true now.

AI desperately needs rules and guardrails and data centers need to be tied to renewables. People should be careful about all of this, but bitching about every funny AI-generated image is stupid.

Lol yeah we've been using lazy ways to make fun images for a long time.

The knee jerk "AI evil" impulse around here just gets frustrating. LLMs and gen AI are tools. Don't fall in love with them or worship them, but don't pretend that they can't be used for useful tasks.

Sharing an image made by gen AI is not fascist or pro-oligarchy. It's just sharing an image. Relax.

It's fine.

ChatGPT images aren't inherently evil. It's a tool that can be useful in limited ways. In this case, we now have an awesome frog poster. Nothing more, nothing less.

This shit is making my spidey-sense tingle. I'm really tempted to pull my investments from S&P-indexed mutual funds into something less dependent on the stock market.

Unconstitutionally taking money that the law says must be spent on one purpose & using it for something else—when it's to establish personalist control over the FUCKING MILITARY—is about as dangerous a constitutional crisis/failure as you can imagine

Via: www.nbcnews.com/politics/tru...
The Office of Management and Budget sent a notification to Congress about their intent to use research and development funds to pay members of the military, two sources with direct knowledge tell NBC News. A spokesperson for the OMB confirmed to NBC News that it plans to use the research and development funds and that there are two years' worth of funds available within the Department of Defense.
